"Art Conceptuel, une entologie" is a collective translation experience of 278 conceptual artworks, most of them available for the first time in French. The three writers/translators/editors have selected works by 42 artists of the 1960s and 1970s (essentially American, German and Italian artists), redefining the limits of what is called Conceptual Art to consider it as part of literature in general - thus the subtitle « entologie », etymologically meaning "transplant".

The three editors of the book will discuss their working method, choices, stances and the necessity of rereading history, during a conversation with the public.www.editionsmix.org

"The disintegration of the social and economic system had been slow, gradual, and profound. It went so deep that people lost faith in natural law itself. Nothing seemed stable or fixed; the universe was a sliding flux (...) all that remained was probable sequence: good odds in a universe of random chance." - "Solar Lottery", by Philip K. Dick (1955).
